May 27, 2012an insult to Akira Toriyama, the mangas and the animated series. i question whether they writers and directors even read the mangas. normally i go easy on movies like this that are intended as just fun, but this movie fails completely. awful acting,directing and writing. do not watch this movie, especially is you're a fan of the original material (it will just make you madder, like it did me).
Apr 20, 2011
Dec 11, 2012Never in my life have a once watched a movie that has ruined my childhood more than this movie, it's embarrasing enough that Chow Yun Fat and Ernie Hudson are in this abonation alone more than anything else. There needs to be an angry mob that goes into every store that sells DVD's an Blu-Rays and destroy all the copies of this film! Horrible piece of trash
Nov 30, 2011One of the worst movies Ive watched. The characters arent the same as the manga or anime. The plot blows. The ending was one of the worst their budget must have been what 5 dollars? The special effects were soem of the worst

Oct 17, 2010Loved the cartoon and used to race home to see it on Cartoon Network some 10 years ago, but this is a travesty. It's so dumb and sad to see this movie made this way. Thanks for trying to kill it.

Sep 10, 2013If they ever make a One Piece or any other live-action film based off an anime, hands off I will smack every producer that ever thought that was a good idea. This movie isn't worth the trouble of paying for.
Jan 6, 2014Worse than Gaius
Jun 12, 2013
Mar 14, 2014Absolutely horrible. The worst film I have ever seen. Outside of the characters names, it doesn't even stay close the the source material. And even when it tries to put it's own spin on something, if fails spectacularly. Stay away from it at all costs, and if you're a fan of Dragon Ball then burn every single copy you come across.

May 15, 2014Ban this movie. No wonder why Akira Toriyama doesn't wan't Hollywood to adapt another DBZ movie. Everything about this movie is terrible, this is truly an insult to entire DBZ universe and it's fans. It looks nothing like a Dragon Ball.
Sep 19, 2011"Dragonball: Evolution" is a movie not for kids, but for kindergartners. Its a film you definitely want to skip and just watch the anime (the anime's way better than this crap).
May 28, 2012Its somewhat enjoyable and if you are familiar with any of the dragonball shows, you'll probably feel the nastalgia. Its way better than The Last Airbender.
Feb 18, 2011If you are in your early twenties hoping for some epic case of nostalgia -reminisce of those wasted nights of youth spent watching a dozen DBZ episodes, of course with Japanese subs- this isn't the movie for you.
If you are looking for a fun action movie to kill time, take a look. But really, nothing special here. -
May 18, 2012I've started this movie about 4 times but every time I turn it off because I fall asleep or lose interest. What a shame on the series. Stick to the anime. But set your expectations for this film at 0 and you might actually appreciate it a bit. I give it a 4/10 because I see it as an ode to the series. Still, don't watch it if you aren't a dragonball fan
Jul 7, 2011A disgrace in all calibers for a DBZ fan , it broke my heart and it will broke the heart for every single one that read this and that is a fan of this anime. Just came from nowhere to be hidden in the garbage. Stand aside people.
Nov 10, 2014Imagine someone taking your childhood and throwing it on the fire and slowly watch it burn as the movie goes along. I just felt bad watching this movie. How did they thought about this? No beams just hand farts of magic.

Dec 22, 2014The Worst Adaptation from a beloved Anime or Cartoon or Whatever. DragonBall Evolution is very bad and has some potential to be good film if not the worst films of all time!
A popular Japanese manga series gets a pleasing if paint-by-numbers live-action makeover in Dragonball Evolution, which half-heartedly tries to keep the faith for its pubescent male fanbase.
The film is crammed with treats for old-school "Dragonball" fans, from the inclusion of all these characters (who don't actually do much) to the moment when spiky-haired Goku dons his orange gi. For everyone else, this amounts to another seen-it-before, probably-willing-to-see-it-again distraction.
Completely lacking in visual, narrative or stylistic coherence, the film also suffers from cheap-looking visual effects and poorly staged and edited action sequences that will not exactly please the fanboys.

First Images Of Josh Holloway On The Set Of 'Mission Impossible 4′
SL-Lost have uncovered some new photos of Josh Holloway on the set of Mission: Impossible 4. Holloway, who's best known for his portrayal of Sawyer on 'Lost,' will play a member of Ethan Hunt's (Tom Cruise) Impossible Mission Force. Sawyer was one of my favourite characters in television history, his 'son of a b*tch' saying, southern charm and complexity were hard not to like. Holloway is bound to have a great career, hopefully this will help spring board it.
The previous instalment in the Mission Impossible series was fantastic, fingers crossed this is another gem! Director Brad Bird has assembled a fine cast to support Tom Cruise in Ving Rhames, Jeremy Renner, Josh Holloway, Paula Patton, Simon Pegg, Vladimir Mashkov and Michael Nyqvist. Look out for 'Mission Impossible 4′ in cinemas December 16, 2011.

Peckover, Sue (2011) 'From 'public health' to 'safeguarding children': British health visiting in policy, practice and research. In: CPHVA Annual Conference , 19-20 October 2011, Brighton Centre, Brighton. (Unpublished)
Microsoft PowerPoint (Paper given at CPHVA Conference October 2011) - Presentation Download (119kB) |
Despite uncertainties about the future of health visiting it has a remained a key and universal service within the British welfare state. This may because health visiting always meets a central policy objective whether that is concerned with child protection, early intervention or public health. Whilst there are currently many challenges - the expansive safeguarding children agenda, the requirement to target service provision within a universal framework and concerns about workforce numbers – recent policy developments which aim to strengthen health visiting suggest it continues to play a central role in relation to child and family health and welfare. And yet despite this, health visiting often remains on the sidelines, marginalised or invisible. This may reflect the places and spaces in which health visiting operates which is largely a gendered and often private world. It may also reflect it's relatively weak position within the academic world and the diverse knowledge and research base which supports professional practice. This paper will explore some of these tensions in how British health visiting is located and understood in the worlds of policy, practice and research. It will suggest that some of these tensions and uncertainties within health visiting may be a strength, enabling the profession to adapt itself in response to policy and practice developments. Thus the paper will both celebrate and critique the survival of health visiting, whilst also noting the challenging policy and budgetary environment in which it is currently being commissioned.

Past & Present is a collection of essays on decorative art history and DIY projects by Design Sponge columnist, Amy Azzarito. Grace Bonney, founder of the very popular Design Sponge website, first met Amy while working on a video project at the New York Public Library. The two became instant friends, as Grace was impressed with Amy's knowledge and passion for design and the history behind it. Thus the column, Past & Present, was born. In this book, Amy highlights some of her favorite styles in the history of decorative arts and pairs her essays with advice from various designers on creating DIY projects that reflect the eras she writes about.
We chose to create one of the projects, using our 100% organic cotton jersey, to make a Shaker-style hanging lamp.

Motaisal 5pts it is good new technology but I think some thing is missing in it that to achieve its options on road when not all the car has same technology what they will do for others.
Justin 5pts There will come a day when every vehicle on the road will be semi-automated. You'll climb in your car, mark a preset destination, kick back and have a beer and it will take you there quicker and safer than possible today. Traffic and speeds will be controlled by a computer and GPS, fuel economy will go up as no one will ever be stuck in traffic, driver stress levels will drop, insurance will fall significantly as "drivers" are no longer having multi vehicle accidents, commute times will go down, productivity would see a rise as you're now free to do whatever in your car on the way to work, only downside is you won't actually have the freedom of driving, but there's off road for that I'm sure...the benefits are endless...let's hope when that day comes, that they're not all boring Hondas on the road...
Justin 5pts I'm waiting for the day when all vehicles on the road are linked by satellite and computers are controlling their speed and traffic patterns. All you'll have to do is climb in, mark a destination, and the car will automatically take your there without ever stopping wasting gas at lights, traffic jams will no longer exist as the computers optimize every vehicles speed and traffic flow. Insurance rates will tank, fuel economy will go up, commute times will go down, stress behind the wheel will drop, DUIs will disappear as you're not driving...only tradeoff is we won't have as much freedom, but the advantages will vastly outweigh the disadvantages...it will happen mark my words.
brabus_S67 5pts Something else for the government(s) to track us with... the road to hell IS paved with good intentions isn't it...
DMcG 5pts The Benz system sounds worthwhile. It would have the potential to eliminate "hunting" on grades, and that would be valuable to me. (I am less enamored of the radar-based systems.) The Honda system, on the other hand, is an elegant idea limited by the presence of other, less enlighted, vehicles all around it. The idea of smoothing traffic flow through controlled accel/decel is a valid traffic engineering theory only if the freeway is full of vehicles that all exhibit that behavior.
LG04 5pts This may not exactly be kosher, but I already do this and then some... If I'm driving a car and I see some rolling hills I'll speed up on the down slope and roll back my throttle on the up slope. Like I said, it's not kosher, but it's a complete waste of energy to use your brakes going down a hill when you are going right back up in a few seconds. It's one reason hybrids get good MPG, they recover a portion of it (small engines with 100%-torque-from-0 electric motor helps, too).
speedyspidey 5pts Quote: "making it an attractive feature for companies looking to reduce their fleet's average fuel economy" REALLY WOT? Reduce the fuel economy? Do you ever read back what you wrote??
SubaruSTI 5pts I've always had an idea for this type of thing considering I drive on mountain highways all the time. Glad to see they're finally putting it into action.
smelly pete 5pts stupid tech, the car should already know if it's in the wrong gear and it only takes fractions of seconds for it to shift into the correct gear

Heroin in the Official Pharmacopoeia
Since heroin began to be used as a medicine about the year 1900, official recognition of the drug has varied greatly. Several countries such as China, Mexico, Norway, Poland and Venezuela have never included any of the heroin preparations in their pharmacopoeias while other countries have officially recognized them and still do, and some countries have included them in some of their issues but later dropped them.

Heroin in the Official Pharmacopoeia
Since heroin began to be used as a medicine about the year 1900, official recognition of the drug has varied greatly. Several countries such as China, Mexico, Norway, Poland and Venezuela have never included any of the heroin preparations in their pharmacopoeias while other countries have officially recognized them and still do, and some countries have included them in some of their issues but later dropped them.
There are by now 12 countries which do not include heroin or heroin preparations in their official pharmacopoeias; these countries are: China, Denmark, Hungary, Japan, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Venezuela, United States of America, and Yugoslavia.
The first country to make heroin an official drug was Austria. 1906. (Pharmacopoeia austriaca Ed. VIII).
The same year heroin and heroin hydrochloride were accepted, tentatively, by the Council of Pharmacy and Chemistry of the American Medical Association for listing in the proposed annual "New and Non-Official Remedies." The therapeutic indications of the compounds were given as follows: "When given in small doses heroin hydrochloride has apparently no effect on any of the vital functions except respiration ... In large doses it may produce dizziness, nausea and occasionally constipation and in poisonous amounts, twitching of the extremities, great exhaustion and dimness of vision ... The habit is readily formed and leads to the most deplorable results... On withdrawing the drug from habitues, there is said to be a tendency to respiration failure ... Heroin and its hydrochloride are recommended chiefly for the treatment of diseases in the air passages attended with cough, difficult breathing and spasm, much as the different forms of bronchitis, pneumonia, consumption, asthma, whooping cough, laryngitis and certain forms of hay fever. It has also been recommended as an analgesic, in the place of morphine in various painful affections."
In the United States, official acceptance of the drug came in 1910, with the inclusion of diacetylmorphine and its hydrochloride in the United States Pharmacopoeia IX. The drugs were, however, withdrawn from the next edition, U.S.P.X. published in 1920. Eighteen countries still include heroin and heroin preparations in their pharmacopoeias: Argentina (Farmacopea Nacional Argentina, Ed. III, 1943), Austria (Pharmacopoea Austriaca, Ed. VIII, 1906), Belgium (Pharmacopée belge, Ed. IV, 1930), Brazil (Pharmacopeia dos Estados Unidos do Brazil, Ed. I, 1929), Finland (Pharmacopoea Fennica, Ed. VI, 1937), France (Codex Medicamentarius Gallicus, Ed. VII, 1949), Germany (Deutsches Arzneibuch, Ed. VI, 1926), Greece (Hellenike Pharmakopoiia, Ed. II, 1924), Italy (Farmacopea Ufficiale de Regno d'Italia, Ed. VI, 1940), The Netherlands (Codex Medicamentorium Nederlandicus, Ed. V, 1926), Paraguay (Proyecto de Farmacopea Paraguaya, 1929), Portugal (Farmacopeia Portuguesa, Ed. IV, 1946), Romania (Farmacopea Română, Ed. IV, 1926), Switzerland (Pharmacopoea Helvetica, Ed. V; 1949), Turkey (Turk Kodeksi, 1940), Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (Gosudarstvennaia Farmakopeia Soiuza Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik, Ed. IX, 1952), United Kingdom (The British Pharmacopoeia, 1948).
The Austrian, Dutch and Finnish pharmacopoeia include both Heroin and Heroin hydrochloride, while the rest list just Heroin hydrochloride.
The Greek Pharmacopoeia of 1924 is no longer up to date in regard to narcotics. Heroin has not been used in Greece since 1930, because of its exclusion from the list of narcotic drugs whose use is permitted by the Greek State Monopoly.

Net Neutrality Regulations Could Be Costly, Report Warns
Could net neutrality prove too costly to the U.S. economy to implement? A report on how FCC regulation of the Internet warns such measures could be a huge drain for the industry, one of the nation's healthiest.
As Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski prepares to outline the agency's plan for greater authority over broadband service providers, a report from The Advanced Communications Law & Policy Institute at New York Law School and technology research firm Entropy Economics warned new regulations for providers of broadband Internet service could result in the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs and could also reduce U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by tens of billions of dollars per year.Charles Davidson, director of Institute, and Bret Swanson, president of Entropy Economics, were the authors of the report, titled "Net Neutrality, Investment & Jobs: Assessing the Potential Impacts of the FCC's Proposed Net Neutrality Rules on the Broadband Ecosystem". The report examines the extent of likely damages to investment, jobs, and U.S. GDP resulting from the implementation of the FCC's proposed net neutrality regulations.
In the report, the authors describe net neutrality's restrictions on the development of new business models, its impediments to the reliable delivery of life-enhancing content and services, and the injection of uncertainty into the marketplace. The paper estimates the likely investment, job, and GDP losses resulting from the imposition of such rules. The authors argue because net neutrality could foreclose even larger investments than presumed in the paper's baseline scenario, the number of jobs lost or foregone could be even greater than the 10-30 percent drop forecast in the report, stretching to 700,000 jobs lost.
Davidson and Swanson analyzed the hundreds of billions of dollars in broadband network expansion and upgrades over the past decade and concluded they generated hundreds of thousands of jobs, annually contribute tens of billions of dollars to GDP and spurred innovation across the content and device sectors. The research suggests large investments and rapid innovation across the ecosystem have been spurred by the light-touch regulatory approach taken by the FCC over the last several years.
Davidson said with the U.S. economy still in a fragile state, imposing restrictive regulation on one of the country's most dynamic sectors is misguided. "The FCC's proposed net neutrality rules would reverse the many organic gains realized under the current regulatory framework - one that has allowed the broadband sector to flourish," he said. "The rules would likely result in significant job losses and would hinder a spectrum of innovative broadband-enabled services."
The report projected broadband service providers such as Verizon, Comcast and others are expected to invest at least $30 billion annually in new fiber-optic and wireless networks between 2010 and 2015, resulting in the creation or sustainment of more than 500,000 jobs. The authors argued these investments are likely to spur capital expenditures by others in the ecosystem. The report projected a five percent incremental increase in capital expenditures by these ecosystem companies could boost investment by approximately $18 billion per year between 2010 and 2015, and yield an additional 450,000 jobs created or sustained.
"The U.S. Internet is one of our healthiest industries," Swanson concluded. "We enjoy robust investment and vibrant innovation - and we're just getting started. Absent new constraints on this dynamic arena, we should expect more investment, creativity, and job creation. Net neutrality could give us just the opposite."

At E3 microsoft announced Games on Demand service which include 30 titles at launch of Xbox 360 classics and popular games. No prices was mentioned. I want to share my views on such a service and how I find the current retail market and used game market. Retail vs. Digital Download Retail I went and purchased a new game today from Morrisons. A month ago I purchased a game I pre-ordered from Game. Both experiences were similar. Rubbish. Besides the obviously getting to the shop in business hours I found the end product treated no better then a used game. And yet I was paying full price. The packages was unwrapped, the disk removed from it, there were stickers placed directly on the box. And in the case of EA Active I ordered from Game the box was crumpled and looked used. This was the day of release! Staff never seem to be very interested in you or your business and it's clear that major chains like HMV and Morrisons that do not deal in second hand games hike the prices of games to full MSRP if not higher. And these prices usually stay that way even six months after a release. Stock is usually limited and again you get your order in a used condition. If you do purchase from a major game retailer you will find they treat all their games new or used the same. Additionally you can buy physical copies online but this also got it's problem. For a popular game stock will be limited and depending on where you buy you can end up with shipping charges or even price inflatted. Shortly after release online retailers like Amazon and Play who offer a marketplace will see a drastic inflation of prices for new products. This is especially bad for "collector editions" where they know months later people will pay for it. Digital Digital download has it's advantages but several key problems still remain. Digital media can be a dodgy purchase depending on who is selling it. For consoles there really is no options except on Xbox 360 for a small selection of Xbox Original games. However with the launch of Games on Demand we will see some better selection. Pricing hasn't been announced but we can assume that titles that have been around over a year will be priced at around �19.99. For PC gamers there is some good and bad options. EA has it's EA store which offers its catalog of games for more then MSRP (i.e. Sims 3 costs �40.00 when in retail it's �30.00). Why do they think people will pay MORE then Game or Amazon is charging for the same thing I don't know. Steam is a fairly good option, and more good deals are coming along offering gamers back catalogs for cheep. Then there is storage. Right now at max you can have 120GB of storage on an Xbox 360. Oblivion alone will take about 8GB of that. Considering that in reality you will be getting more like 100GB of actual storage, and you have to consider movies you download, avatars, demos, DLC and arcade is all going to sap the space down. I am using a 60GB drive and I am nearly out of space with about 3 games installed to it. If Microsoft does release a new hard drive they may still charge �100 or more for the drive, which is well above the cost for the drive itself. The other issues is bandwidth. I believe most gamers will have at least 2Mbs at their disposal which is more then enough to download a game overnight. Obviously this is still awhile to wait considering you may be able to purchase a game and be home playing for the time it takes you to go to the store. But then that can be problematic. However if pricing is fair and games which are less well know, or always out of stock are always available, this will make it easier to get and potentially boost sales. And more importantly is what I will call the Psychonauts effect. Sometimes a game is poorly advertised and may not seem that good. But later on after people have played it they realize actually this is an awesome game. By this point retail will have no copies and only used games will be available. That means no profit going to the game developers and publishers. So even though the game took longer to catch hold, due to the limited retail shelving space it dies a slow death and if it has the budget to advertise like Nintendo and Blizzard it could have sold well. The best thing about Digital is developers and publishers get paid everytime. And that will create a trickle effect where games at launch will have a certain level of sales, but then for those who may not be able to buy right away, or might stumble upon the game down the road will still be paying the developers. Certain titles which might do very well in the used market such as Call of Duty 4 (still very expensive used) can be be selling and paying the developers for years after. And prices can be adjusted so that day of release buyers will pay the most and after the game has been out a couple of months the price slow drops. Pricing may well be the very thing that keeps gamers away from Digital. It is a much cheeper to sell on a game and use those funds towards other purchases. This is really felt with annual games like PES where the street price drops to a few pounds. However there are ways to keep people who finish a game and want to move on happy. A subscription model is the best for this type of gamer. Rather then paying for individual games, you pay one price to rent any title, play through it and once your done you can play another. Pricing is something that will have to be worked out. But considering that it works for so many game rental companies like Gamefly, Metaboli I don't see why it couldn't work with digital download. Or there is the option to rent a one off for a period of time. I don't think piracy would be much more a problem then it is with physical media. At the end of the day shouldn't game developers get paid for their work? And should consumers be able to get access at a fair price to games and feel good about their purchase? I know one of the complaints is also going to be people like to see the games on the shelf. I know I am one of those people too. But retail has ruined that for me. Everytime I peel off a sticker from my new game I feel less and less happy about retail. Game trading used to be done between friends, but now is a Million � Industry which has left the game buyer standing in a long que to buy something which is basically used for new price. I am for digital distribution, it is the future and I feel game publishers can find new ways and new pricing models to please everyone. |

Registered 12 years agoBoth will coexist. I only buy from Steam when it's a good sale and Microsoft certainly isn't going to be generous and neither will other publishers through Xbox 360. Still, prices have yet to be seen and how they are priced later in life. One good thing is dev/publishers will get more money but only when they don't take the piss price and drm wise. -

Registered 6 years agoi like to pick up XBLA games for the price they come in at, but as far as making full price retail games available to download....
1) they need to reduce the idiotic price of their HD or i'm not jumping on the bandwagon.
2) they need to take more than a token two or three quid off the price of the game, or there's absolutely no point in buying a game you can't sell on or take back etc etc etc. and we know the chances of them pricing these games at reasonable prices is slim at best.
3) when the next gen of consoles roll around, will all of these digital downloads - XBLA and especially the full price retail titles - still work on the new ones? who wants to bet there'll be "problems"? -

Registered 7 years agoThe prices will stay at �19.99. After looking into this further Microsoft's MSRP for it's Classics series on 360 is �19.99.
And while I think Call of Duty 2 and Need for Speed Carbon are a rip off, the other titles are worth �20.00. Both Call of Duty and Need for Speed are last gen games redone for 360. They were released around four years ago.
Ok so if every Games on Demand title which is either on Classics Range or is over six months old is sold for �19.99 that isn't too bad. Yes it's not as cheep as used but it is a solid price that can be counted on.
The only thing Microsoft needs to do now is release an affordable large capacity HDD. -

Registered 6 years agowell, i wouldn't say there's much "convenience" in paying a lot more for a download that takes up precious space, can't be resold and in many cases costs a lot more than a disc version.
if someone can't be bothered taking the time to pick up any of those titles online for a lot less and actually have some patience for a 2+ year old game to drop through the letterbox then it's a little bit weird imho. if they were brand new titles and you absolutely HAD to have it ten minutes after midnight on launch day i could understand it, but surely most of the stuff there has been out long enough that anybody with keraayze purchase impulses would have picked them up already? -

Registered 13 years agoYup that is stupidity of the highest order. They really need to have a look at the pricing and do something realistic. I wouldn't mind paying a few � extra for the convenience of GoD but like Whizzo pointed out �10 difference between GoD and retail is a bit daft. -
I only see one benefit to buying a GOD. That is that in three years time or maybe even longer when i suddenly get the urge to replay a game i can just re download and not have to find the game in some obsure bargain bin in a shop.
The downside is that IM NOT MADE OF FUCKING MONEY. -

Registered 6 years agoI don't think that this service is in direct competition with retail, they know full well that they shouldn't bite the hand that feeds.
I only see this direct download stuff being used as a back catalogue and not a place to offer pre-orders etc.
I am not against this download service but I doubt I will use it. Someone said earlier up the thread that consumer choice is key and that is correct. The more choice the better as it will benefit the consumer and force competitive rates.
The thought of not actually having something tangible in my hand that still retains some value is what puts me off. I buy games and play them a few times, throw them on the shelf and might go back to them later. In the last two weeks I have regained over a �100 on selling old games, and that is important to me. Buying online as a digital version does not give me that option.
nice idea but I will stick to buying the actual game disc online from Amazon.co.uk. -

Registered 9 years agoThere's a lot of whining for a service that's actually good. I know I won't buy any of these games because I pretty much buy all the games that interest me on day one but still, this is a good option to have.
If it's too expensive for you don't buy it, who cares? I'm sure MS won't lose money if we don't use GOD so they don't care either, it's just an option!
And yes in the UK we're blessed with all these websites that discount games but it's not the same everywhere. In some places you'd pay close to RRP for these same games even if they're old. And some people just refuse to shop online.
By the way, COD4 is a 2 years old and I've never seen it at �19.99, people would be happy to see it on GOD.
Come on it's a new service and not it's not forced on anyone, give it a chance! You don't have to use it but can appreciate its existence.XBL: Shadow Thi3f

bonus! -
The only problem with that is that they'll have gone to bed by the time it's finished downloading. Unless they are insominacs of course, and are still online for the 6 or so hours it'll take before you are able to play it.
Bought Viva Pinata:TiP myself through the GoD channel, as I've not seen it anywhere for much less than �20 anyway so price isn't much of a concern. But the fact it takes so long to download completely ruins any pretension of 'convenience'. It'd be quicker to take a 30 mile long round trip to buy a boxed copy than download as a GoD.
I can see this fatal flaw becoming even more major when (if) MS start to sell games on their respective release date. Imagine trying to download a 6.5gig Gears 3 on release day with everyone in the world trying to download it at the same time. The service slows to a crawl when a lukewarm 1gig demo is put up on the Marketplace, what the fuck will it be like for a big name release? -

Welsh Place-Names Unzipped
Brian Davies Other books by Brian Davies
The ideal guide to understand and pronounce Welsh place-names. Includes explanations of most elements in place-names and sections on pronunciation and the Welsh language and alphabet.
Category: Leisure History
Language: English
Part of the series: It's Wales
"When this book was 'reviewed' in the Western Mail it was dismissed with the words, 'I'm not very keen on [this]. It's meant for people who want to know what place-names like Bala and Tonypandy mean'. Well, I freely admit to having an interest in the meaning of place-names and so do thousands of others. Toponymy is a recognized academic subject,and many scholarly works have been published on the origins and meanings of place-names. A name can reveal so much about a place its history, its topography, its inhabitants, past and present, their occupations, its wildlife, its religious connections and can often be a source of information about a place that otherwise would be forgotten. The number of books on place-names to be found in shops in busy tourist areas testifies to the number of people curious to know the meanings of the many colourful names to be found in Wales. While some of these just list the Welsh name together with its English meaning, and others add information about its origins, this little book is for the more adventurous. It gives the reader the means to analyse (or unzip) the meaning of Welsh place-names by providing a list of the elements from which most names are composed. It is possible, using the book, to break down a name like Penrhyndeudraeth into its component parts and work out that it means 'promontory between two beaches'. It is written specifically for those who have no knowledge of Welsh,and takes into account the problems of initial mutations and unusual plurals. There are, for example, separate entries for 'arth', 'erth', and 'eirth', and a word like 'pont' appears under both its radical form and its mutated form 'bont'. Personal names are also included, so that it is easy to discover that Llangollen is the chursch of St Collen. Particular attention is given to words like 'aber', 'pen', and 'tref' which appear most often. Also included are a brief history of Wales and Welsh place-names, a guide to the pronunciation of Welsh, and a number of worked examples to help the reader on his way. I have tested this on twenty randomly-selected names and found no difficulty in 'unzipping' fifteen of them. Some of the failures included some unusual name elements; the only surprise was not to find 'cas' as in Casnewydd. For a very small outlay this little book will entertain and inform the many visitors to Wales who show an intelligent interest in their surroundings. " - Stan Jenkins, Gwales.com

Bowman, M. and Valk, Ü. eds. (2012). Vernacular Religion in Everyday Life: Expressions of Belief. Sheffield, Oakville CT: Equinox.
URL: | http://www.equinoxpub.com/equinox/books/showbook.a... |
Google Scholar: | Look up in Google Scholar |
Vernacular religion is religion as people experience, understand, and practice it. It shapes everyday culture and disrupts the traditional boundaries between 'official' and 'folk' religion. Vernacular Religion in Everyday Life examines how the concept of genres – notably written, performative and oral genres – can be applied to the study of vernacular belief to illuminate faith and practice. Genres are forms of expression and interpretive strategies which are developed through everyday communication and performance. They can come to express ways of seeing and of being which take the individual beyond traditional forms of religion. The book analyses vernacular religion in a range of Christian denominations as well as in indigenous and New Age religion from the nineteenth century to today. How these differing expressions of belief are shaped by their individual, communal and national contexts is also explored. What is revealed is the consistency of genres, the persistence of certain key issues, and how globalisation in all its cultural and technological forms is shaping contemporary faith practice.

ROME 12 June 2002 -- "According to an old Chinese proverb, 'women hold up half the sky.' In the battle against hunger and poverty, women, especially rural women, most certainly hold up the heavier half," Mr David A Harcharik, Deputy Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, said today at a meeting on the decisive role rural women play in feeding the world.
On the third day of the "World Food Summit: five years later" heads of state, ministers, high-ranking officials and representatives of non-governmental organizations from around the world gathered to learn more about "Rural women: crucial partners in the fight against hunger and poverty." The purpose of the meeting, organized by FAO's Gender and Population Division with the financial support of Sweden, was to gain recognition for women as farmers in their own right and to mobilize increased political will and resources to remove persistent gender inequities.
His Excellency Paul Kagame, President of the Republic of Rwanda, opened the meeting by saying that rural women bear the brunt of underdevelopment. "In the present day and age, we must recognize the fact that women should have the right to land, access to credit, the right to share the benefits of agricultural output, the right to inherit property and the right to education." He also stressed the importance of rural women having equal rights to participate in the policy process, adding that rural women must be nothing less than equal partners in the fight against poverty.
Rural women constitute the majority of the 1.5 billion people who live in absolute poverty. Even though women head about one fifth of rural households -- and in some regions more than one third -- women only own around 1 percent of all land.
The two keynote speakers at the meeting -- Rosalina Tuyuc of Guatemala and Vandana Shiva of India - talked about rural women's lack of access to resources and lack of influence in policymaking.
Ms Tuyuc is Coordinator of the Guatemalan National Organization for Widows (CONAVIGUA), former Vice President of Guatemala's Congress, a human rights activist and a Maya. She said: "With our hands we work our land and make it productive, but this has not been sufficient to ensure food for all. Our land does not yield much, as the best land is in the hand of those who do not work."
Her comments were supported Ms Shiva, Director of India's Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology, who is also a physicist, environmentalist and author of many books. "It is time to take stock of who really feeds the world," she said. "It is rural women. They are more in numbers, they produce more and they do it with fewer resources." And, she added, "Rural women are the guardians of biodiversity. They don't need patriarchal support. They and their knowledge are the resources of the future."
Statistics show that almost 70 percent of economically active women in low-income food-deficit countries are employed in the agricultural sector. But in spite of their crucial roles in assuring food security, rural women battle hunger and poverty on increasingly marginal land with meagre resources. Their voices are seldom heard among those of the decision-makers. To raise their voices and expand their choices, action is needed to ensure that women have equal access to resources, such as land, water, credit and technology, and that they can participate fully in policy making.
"Poverty reduction and establishing food security and gender equality must be seen as one coherent undertaking," said the chairperson of the meeting, Margareta Winberg, Swedish Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries and for Gender Equality. "This has, so far, not been the case." She added: "let us send the clear message from this seminar and this Summit to all other decision makers, to the delegates of the Johannesburg Summit later this summer and to the international community -- that genderequality is a prerequisite for the eradication of poverty and hunger and for promoting growth and sustainable development for all."

Hemiataxia-hypesthesia: a thalamic stroke syndrome. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 1640235 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Six patients had isolated hemiataxia and ipsilateral sensory loss, as a manifestation of thalamic infarction in the thalamogeniculate territory. Acute hemiataxia-hypesthesia was not found in 1075 other patients from the Lausanne Stroke Registry who were admitted during the same period. Stroke onset was progressive in five patients and immediately complete in one. Five patients had an objective sensory loss. In two patients this affected light touch, pain and temperature sense, and in another three light touch, pain temperature, position and vibration sense. One patient had a purely subjective sensory disturbance. The sensory deficit cleared or was clearing although the ataxia persisted in all patients. On lesion mapping on CT or MRI, all patients had involvement of the lateral part of the thalamus (ventral posterior nucleus and ventral lateral nucleus). The presumed causes of stroke were cardioembolism in one patient, posterior cerebral artery occlusion in one patient and meningovascular syphilis in one patient, hypertensive small vessel disease in two patients, and undetermined in one patient. Hemiataxia-hypesthesia is a new stroke syndrome involving the perforating branches to the lateral thalamus, but in which small vessel disease may not be the leading cause. |

TORSO Referees
TORSO is continuously working to bring the highest quality officiating to their teams. Our officials have many years of experience in competitive and select club soccer as well as high school and adult competitions. To assure a quality playing experience for our members, each TORSO match is assigned a 3-person referee team with only experienced referees assigned as referee.
See Match Procedures Page for Playoff Tie Breaker Instructions
Guidelines for Day of Match
Detailed game day procedures may be found on our Match Procedures page.
- Call the TORSO weather hotline before you leave: 832-487-8786. The hotline will be updated by 11am on Sundays for all locations. If the hotline reports that the fields are open, teams are expected to play.
- Check-in: Teams owe you completed rosters 15 minutes before kickoff. You must be there at least 15 minutes early and start checking in players at that time. AR's have full authority and responsibility to check in players. AR's need no other permission to take control of the check-in process and are expected to do so if they have not been already asked to do so by the Referee.
- Identification: Every player must be on the roster and have a TORSO Player Pass (card) or a government-issued photo identification that matches the roster. There are no exceptions. The photo must be of the person that is standing in front of you. If it is not, that individual cannot play.
- Start Time: Remind teams of their obligation to start on time. A team needs seven players, including one woman, to start the match. If a team has seven players and check-in is done, do not wait for additional players. Start the match.
- Delayed Starts: If check-in delays the start of the match, tell the teams that you are shortening the halves by equal amounts. Never allow more that 15 minutes to start the match. A forfeit (for which you will be paid) is required at exactly 15 minutes if teams fail to have seven (7) players on the pitch.
- Water Breaks: If both teams agree before the match, water breaks may be given during each half without adding 'stoppage time'.
- Bookings: Do not negotiate bookings. Bookings are the only way we have of tracking the behavior of our players.
- Dissent: Referees, do not allow dissent to be directed at the AR's. AR's: Do not tolerate dissent. Advise the referee of 'ungentlemanly' behavior.
- Fouls: A foul is a foul. But, men must use skill, not strength, when challenging women.
- Checkout: Before you leave the pitch, verify the results with the team captains to ensure the correct names and numbers for the players that scored and those that were booked. Also verify the names of the assistant referees. Keep the game sheets to aid entering the online match report.
- Send in your match reports early and get paid early. No one gets paid until the last report is in.

We were treated to a dramatic Closing Ceremony last night which commenced with a flag jump of great precision by members of the UAE team, followed by yet another dramatic, heart stopping flying display by the world famous Hungarian aerobatic pilot, Zoltan Veres and his extraordinary routine.
Two different formation skydiving loads built formations, the first of the Palm and the second F 3 (Fazza3), followed by another flying show and then the Prize Giving. By then it was getting very dark. The Prize Giving was attended by one of the younger brothers of the Crown Prince of Dubai, as well as the Secretary General of the FAI.
The closing banquet on tables set out on a DZ turned into an amazing arabic terrace, with backdrop, statues and more food than even a load of skydivers could eat. Add to that a superb band playing great music. There was even alcohol available. A magical end to a great competition. Not to forget a fabulous firework display. We will be back next year!
I have had a wonderful time in Dubai, judging both Canopy Piloting and Formation Skydiving and posting onto this site. I could not have managed it without the help of Fay Kimble, back in France, who tidied up my work and put together the photo compilations. Thanks also to Dirk Ventner - for provision of the scoring system and upload of results and his partner Claire King for the upload of the FS videos - it's not finished - thanks also to PD's Albert Berchtold for providing the "classic" accuracy results and generally being very helpful - and last, but not least, all those who provided pictures, hopefully we have given you all credit for them - after all, this web site is yours - the skydiving community.

DYNO Nobel Inc. and other Mining Companies
A criminal antitrust probe into the explosives industry finally wrapped the last remaining monies from a $60 million settlement against two of the largest manufacturers of explosives that began in 1992. One of the companies, Salt Lake City-based DYNO Nobel, paid a fine of $15 million. Manufacturers and distributors of commercial explosives allegedly conspired to fix prices, rig bids and allocate customers among themselves. The remaining $48,887 was awarded to the Salt Lake Community Action Program (SLCAP) and the American Antitrust Institute in Washington, D.C. The institute and SLCAP were among the groups that applied for the leftover settlement funds. (Jun-19-06)
